Doug, at 15 gph at 6000 rpm, Mark would be
making approx 165 HP, perhaps a bit more, using a very conservative BSFC
of 0.55. If you assume a bit better BSFC of 0.49 it would be around 183
HP.

Great story...thanks for posting
it! At 6,000 rpm and 15 gph, how many HP do you think you're
developing?
Also, have you by chance flown side by
side with another Lycoming powered ES for comparison purposes? If so what
did you learn?
We're going to have a couple
of "burger burns" at our airport ((2OK2) just east of Tinker
AFB) this Spring / Summer, so maybe you'll feel like going on a
short cross country up this way and show our little EAA chapter what
a three rotor looks and sounds like?!
Organizing the hanger for Spring FWF and
canopy work!
